After the second immunization against COVID-19, because all vaccines have two doses, a document (certificate) will be issued. It will be able to serve people for travel or anything else, said the state’s chief health inspector, Prof. Dr. Angel Kunchev, at a briefing at the Council of Ministers.
A separate immunization module was developed for the COVID portal, where the information will be submitted by all those who carry out the immunization, Kunchev added. At the moment, the information will be mainly from hospitals and then from everyone else: general practitioners, teams, RHIs, and others who do immunizations. They have access to this system. Vaccinations will be administered within 24 hours.
Immunization goes hand in hand with many other secondary activities. One of them is monitoring the effect of immunization. Studies are being prepared to show what effect it has, what immunity is and how long this immunity lasts, the state’s chief health inspector added.
Health Minister Kostadin Angelov wants as many Bulgarian citizens as possible to get healthy vaccines and stay alive. He pointed out that during the last week almost 16,000 people have been cured, the confirmed cases are around 9,500. “I am not happy and I don’t want the Bulgarian citizens to be cured, I want the Bulgarian citizens to be healthy,” Angelov said.
We remind you that during the last 24 hours, 1,615 new cases of COVID-19 infection have been registered in 6,945 tests. Of these, 1,372 are PSR tests, 243 are rapid antigen tests. Eighty-five percent of new cases come from PSR tests and 15 percent are from rapid antigens. 26 percent of PSR tests are positive, 14 percent of rapid antigens are positive. There is a tendency to reduce the occupation of hospital beds in the country’s COVID structures. 42 percent of beds for patients without complications are occupied.
The highest percentage is in Burgas (62 percent), 60 percent in Varna, 56 percent in Ruse, 64 percent in Yambol. Of the intensive beds, employment is 41 percent, 63 percent of the intensive beds in the city of Sofia are occupied.
“We consider this to be a very good trend, that we aim to impose measures,” added the Minister of Health. According to him, the vaccines against COVID-19 are arriving and with them we will overcome some of the darkest pages of modern human history.
